Hi,

This is my first time to post in this forum. I hope somebody can help me configure my A3519A HP Visualize EG Graphic card on my K380 machine running on 11.00 OS.

Thanks

Jun,

You've got one of the older servers that
support a grahpics "console" and an HP-HSC bus Vis-EG.

The driver used on HP-UX is named "graph3"
Check the output of 'ioscan -funC graphics'
The following is from a workstation so the
path and Description would differ. The important thing is that the graphics card shows up as claimed with driver graph3.

Class I H/W Path Driver S/W State H/W Type Description
=======================================================================
graphics 0 10/2/1/0 graph3 CLAIMED INTERFACE PCI Display (103c108b)

Also check to see that the ioscan -fn output shows a keyboard and mouse. Something similar to
ps2 0 8/16/7 ps2 CLAIMED INTERFACE Built-in Keyboard/Mouse
/dev/ps2_0 /dev/ps2kbd
/dev/ps2_1 /dev/ps2mouse

If the devices show up that are required
for graphics then the most common thing to check is /etc/dt/config/Xservers.
This file is all comments except the last line which should not be commented.

* Local local@console /usr/bin/X11/X :0

Note: should not have a comment "#" before the asterisk "*" It becomes commented out
when CDE is started and there isn't a graphics card installed or there is a problem
with the graphics card.

If it is commented out then remove the file
'rm /etc/dt/config/Xservers'
It will be recreated by restarting CDE.

If no one is logged into the server remotely using CDE (can be checked by 'ps -ef | grep dtsession) then restart CDE.

'/sbin/init.d/dtlogin.rc stop'
'/sbin/init.d/dtlogin.rc start'

If CDE does not come up on the monitor plugged to your card then check the file
/var/dt/Xerrors for clues.
